Partner Agreement

• Platform / Marketplace — the FlatCount.com website, applications and services that let independent agents register leads and sales for the projects FlatCount.com is tied up with, and that facilitate the agent's share once a Developer pays.
• Developer — a real-estate developer or builder (or its authorised representative) with which FlatCount.com has a Channel-Partner Arrangement and whose projects are listed on the Platform.
• Channel-Partner Arrangement — FlatCount.com's own commercial tie-up / registration with a Developer, under which FlatCount.com markets the Developer's projects, channels the bookings its registered agents generate, and is entitled to commission from the Developer.
• Lead — a prospective buyer you sourced yourself and register against a project, before the buyer's site visit or booking, for attribution.
• Sale / Booking — a confirmed unit booking by a buyer you introduced, registered and verified on the Platform.
• Commission — your agreed share, computed under the applicable Scheme, of the commission FlatCount.com is entitled to receive from the Developer on a Confirmed Sale.
• Scheme — the published commission structure (flat %, value-band, count-based and/or monthly boost) applicable to a project, developer or partner.
• Receipt — money actually received by FlatCount.com from a Developer towards a Confirmed Sale's commission.
• Payout — disbursement to your verified bank account of your share of a Receipt.
• KYC — your identity, PAN, contact and bank details, and supporting documents.

FlatCount.com is the channel partner of record with Developers and operates an online marketplace — similar to a freelancing marketplace — that connects independent real-estate agents like you to those opportunities. You bring your own buyers and register their bookings for the listed projects on FlatCount.com. How you find buyers — your own marketing, campaigns, network or referrals — is entirely your own, at your own cost and risk; FlatCount.com does not provide you with buyers or leads.

You engage with FlatCount.com as an independent contractor on a principal-to-principal basis. Nothing in this Agreement creates any employment, agency, partnership, joint venture or franchise between you and FlatCount.com. You act on your own account and at your own risk.

Your contractual relationship is with FlatCount.com only. You have no direct contractual relationship with, and no direct claim against, any Developer — your right to payment is your share of whatFlatCount.com receives, owed by FlatCount.com under this Agreement. FlatCount.com is not your employer, and is not a party to the sale agreement between a buyer and a Developer.

• You are at least 18 years old and legally competent to contract.
• You are lawfully entitled to act as a real-estate sales agent and to register on FlatCount.com the bookings you generate, and you hold all registrations required for your activity, including registration under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) where it applies to you.
• You provide true, accurate and current KYC — your full name as per PAN, a valid PAN, a working mobile number and email, and a bank account in your own name.
• You maintain one account per person; multiple or duplicate accounts (including under different numbers but the same PAN) are not permitted.
• You keep your details current and complete PAN verification before any payout.

FlatCount.com secures Channel-Partner Arrangements with Developers, lists their projects on the Marketplace, and gives you tools to register leads and sales. When you source a booking, FlatCount.com submits and attributes it to the Developer under its Arrangement, verifies it, collects the commission from the Developer, and pays you your share. FlatCount.com may add, change, suspend or remove projects and features at any time.

FlatCount.com provides the marketplace and the developer arrangements — not buyers or leads. Finding buyers is entirely your own activity, at your own cost and risk. FlatCount.com does not provide, guarantee or owe you any buyers, leads, enquiries, projects, sales, conversions, commission or income. The Marketplace is an opportunity and facilitation tool, not a guarantee of business.

• Comply with all applicable laws and rules — including the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) where it applies to you — and with the Developer's terms as conveyed through FlatCount.com.
• Register on the Platform every booking you make for a project listed on FlatCount.com. The buyers you bring are always your own to take anywhere else — but you must not use a developer relationship or project opportunity accessed through FlatCount.com to deal directly with that Developer, or close such a booking off-platform, in order to avoid FlatCount.com's commission.
• Make only true, accurate representations to buyers; never make false, misleading or unauthorised promises about price, returns, approvals, possession or amenities.
• Obtain each buyer's consent before registering or sharing their personal information, and use it only for the relevant transaction.
• Protect buyer and Platform data; do not spam, cold-call unlawfully, or send unsolicited communications.
• Act professionally and honestly; do not impersonate any person, Developer or FlatCount.com, or claim to be FlatCount.com's employee or agent.
• Never submit fraudulent, duplicate, fabricated or inflated leads or sales, or forged proofs, and cooperate fully with verification.

You register a Lead before the buyer's site visit or booking, as the Platform requires. Operations may approve, query or reject Leads. Attribution is to the first valid registration for a buyer–project; duplicate buyer + unit registrations may be flagged or rejected.

You have no exclusive territory or project rights unless expressly granted in writing. Where a Scheme rewards you by the count, value or sequence of your sales, your sales are ranked by booking date, with same-date ties broken by the order Operations approves them — this is determined by the Platform and is final.

For each Sale you upload genuine proof (e.g., the booking form/receipt). Operations verify the Sale, and the Developer's confirmation governs. FlatCount.com may reject or cancel any sale that is unverified, fraudulent, duplicated, or rejected/cancelled by the Developer, in which case no Commission is payable.

• You earn Commission — your share of the commission FlatCount.com is entitled to from the Developer — only on a Confirmed Sale, computed under the Scheme applicable at the time of confirmation. The rate is locked onto each sale at confirmation.
• FlatCount.com may change Schemes prospectively. Changes apply to future sales only; already-confirmed commissions keep their locked rate.
• Value bands, count slabs and monthly boosts/escalations apply exactly as published in the applicable Scheme.
• Referral reward: you may earn 10% of a partner you referred's commission on their sale, capped at ₹20,000 per sale. This rate and cap are configurable and may change prospectively. Self-referrals are not permitted.
• There is no guaranteed minimum commission, retainer or income.

You are paid only after FlatCount.com receives the corresponding commission from the Developer. Your Commission becomes available for Payout once the relevant Receipt is recorded. Your claim for payment is against FlatCount.com(for your share of what it actually receives) and not against the Developer. You bear the Developer's credit and default risk: if a Developer delays, disputes, reduces or fails to pay FlatCount.com, your corresponding Commission is delayed, reduced or not payable, and FlatCount.com is not liable for the shortfall.

• Payouts are made only to a bank account in your own name that has passed penny-drop verification.
• You must complete PAN verification before any payout.
• Payout processing times are best-effort and may depend on banking timelines and verification.
• FlatCount.com may withhold or recover amounts paid in error, on cancelled/reversed sales, or where fraud or breach is found.

You are solely responsible for your own taxes, including income tax and Goods and Services Tax (GST), and for filing your returns and paying statutory dues. FlatCount.comwill deduct tax at source (TDS) under Section 194Hof the Income-tax Act, 1961 and account for GST as required by law, and will make available the applicable statements (including Form 16A / TRACES where relevant). Commission amounts shown on the Platform may be subject to such deductions. GST applies if you are GST-registered or cross the applicable threshold.

FlatCount.com currently charges you no platform fee on your commission — what you see is your gross commission, subject only to statutory TDS/GST. FlatCount.com may introduce or change fees prospectively, on prior notice through the Platform.

Buyer information and non-public Platform information are confidential. You must comply with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Information Technology Act, 2000. Collect and share buyer personal data only with the buyer's consent and only for the relevant transaction, keep it secure with reasonable safeguards, and do not use it for any other purpose. On termination, stop using and securely delete such data, except where law requires retention. Report any data breach to FlatCount.com without undue delay.

The FlatCount.com name, logo, Platform and content are owned by FlatCount.com. You receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use them only as needed to perform under this Agreement. You grant FlatCount.com a licence to use the lead and sale data you submit to operate, verify and improve the Platform and to meet legal obligations.

You will comply with the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, the Prevention of Money-Laundering Act, 2002 and RERA. You will not offer or accept bribes or unlawful inducements, launder money, or offer buyers inducements beyond what the law and the Developer permit. You will deal fairly, transparently and honestly at all times.

Either party may terminate this Agreement on 7days' written notice (including via the Platform). FlatCount.com may suspend or terminate your access immediately for breach, fraud, misrepresentation, or legal, regulatory or risk reasons.

• Commission on Sales confirmed before termination remains payable to you after the Developer settles, subject to this Agreement.
• Unverified or pending leads/sales may lapse on termination.
• Sections on confidentiality, taxes, indemnity, limitation of liability, governing law and dispute resolution survive termination.

You represent and warrant that you have the authority and lawful right to act as a real-estate sales agent and to source bookings through FlatCount.com, that all information you provide is true and current, that you will comply with all applicable laws, and that you are not barred, blacklisted or disqualified from such activity.

You will indemnify and hold harmless FlatCount.com, its officers, employees and affiliates against any claims, losses, damages, penalties and reasonable costs arising from your breach of this Agreement, your misrepresentation or unlawful conduct, your non-compliance with RERA or tax laws, or your misuse of buyer or Platform data.

The Platform is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind. FlatCount.com does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation, or any business, sales or income.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, FlatCount.comis not liable for a Developer's default or for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss. FlatCount.com's total aggregate liability under this Agreement is limited to the total Commission paid to you in the three (3) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or ₹10,000, whichever is higher.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of India. The parties will first try to resolve any dispute amicably. Failing that, the dispute will be referred to arbitration by a sole arbitrator under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996; the seat and venue of arbitration is Bengaluru, Karnataka, and the language is English. Subject to arbitration, the courts at Bengaluru, Karnatakahave exclusive jurisdiction.

• Notices may be given through the Platform or to your registered email/mobile, and are deemed received when sent.
• FlatCount.com may amend this Agreement with notice through the Platform; your continued use after the effective date is acceptance.
• You may not assign your rights or obligations. FlatCount.com may assign to an affiliate or successor.
• If any provision is held invalid, the remainder stays in effect.
• No delay or failure to enforce is a waiver.
• This Agreement, the Independence Declaration and the published Schemes are the entire agreement between us on this subject.
• Neither party is liable for failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control (force majeure).

By ticking the acceptance box at sign-up, or by registering a lead or sale, you accept this Agreement and the Independence Declaration. Your acceptance is recorded electronically against your name, PAN, mobile number, the document version and a timestamp, and is valid under the Information Technology Act, 2000.
